[M!ckeY]

you should try asking in the development area, you might get faster results there

[lmtlmt]

ok

[benh]

you may have a memory leak loading all those images

[lmtlmt]

what does that mean

[lmtlmt]

in the game it now loads the background the deck and sets the life points to 4000!.

ths is the script

green = Color.new(0, 255, 0)
blue = Color.new(0, 128, 255)
luaLogo = Image.load("deck.jpg")
background = Image.load("YUGI BACKGROUND2.png")
lifepoints = (4000)

function scaleImage(newX, newY, theImage)

resizedImage = Image.createEmpty(newX, newY)
for x = 1, newX do
for y = 1, newY do
resizedImage:blit(x,y , theImage,
math.floor(x*(theImage:width()/newX)),math.floor(y*(theImage:height()/newY)), 1,
1)
end
end
return resizedImage

end

scaleImage(53,70, luaLogo) -- Resize image.

while true do
screen:blit(0, 0, background, false)
screen:blit(2,173, resizedImage) -- Show the resized image
screen:print(10, 11, "player 1 its your turn", green)
screen:print(410, 14, lifepoints, blue)

screen.flip()
screen.waitVblankStart()

end

i was trying to make the selecter move from one space to another by pressing left.
it doesnt work. here is the script

green = Color.new(0, 255, 0)
blue = Color.new(0, 128, 255)
luaLogo = Image.load("deck.jpg")
background = Image.load("YUGI BACKGROUND2.png")
lifepoints = (4000)
selecter = Image.load("selecter.png")

function scaleImage(newX, newY, theImage)

resizedImage = Image.createEmpty(newX, newY)
for x = 1, newX do
for y = 1, newY do
resizedImage:blit(x,y , theImage,
math.floor(x*(theImage:width()/newX)),math.floor(y*(theImage:height()/newY)), 1,
1)
end
end
return resizedImage

end

scaleImage(53,70, luaLogo) -- Resize image.

while true do
pad = controls.read()
screen:blit(0, 0, background, false)
screen:blit(2,173, resizedImage) -- Show the resized image
screen:print(10, 11, "player 1 its your turn", green)
screen:print(410, 14, lifepoints, blue)
screen:blit(384, 172, selecter)
if pad:left() then
selecter.x = selecter.x - 78

screen.flip()
screen.waitVblankStart()

end

any ideas on how to make it work
